Duplicate iTunes Folders Displayed on Xbox One

Post by Goose7 »

As I have mentioned in another thread, after sorting out that ffMPEG version issue, another two oddities I am experiencing is the duplication of the three iTunes folders when UMS is sending the file lists to my Xbox One, and along with that behavior occasionally the folder is not what the name on the folder suggests.

Specifically... Instead of the normal number of folders , I will often see double and sometimes triple that number displayed. All of them can be opened and they all contain functioning music files and playlists etc.

Also, at the same time the various iTunes folders will often not be the folder the name suggests that it is. Sometimes when I click on lets say the "iTunes Library" folder, it behaves as if I am opening into the "Recently Played" folder instead and contains the recently played tracks which can be clicked on and played with the Media Player. Backing out of the file list and logging back into UMS from the DLNA Server listing on the Xbox One dashboard seems to fix the problem most of the time.

Are you guys aware of this folder listing behavior with the Xbox One presently?
